The smoke billowed enough towards the south that I felt comfortable getting on my bike. Rode to the Sheriff’s Office closure, about five miles from my house.

Hanging Lake was trending on Twitter earlier today.

Good news. The Forest Service flew over Hanging Lake today, looks like it was spared from the flames. Bad News. The area above the lake was scorched, there will be bad hydrological effects. #GrizzlyCreekFire pic.twitter.com/kdDOinYs1N
